Hi all. I recently upgraded my video card to the 8600GT model, and to say that I'm disappointed would be a huge understatement. It's performing far below all my expectations, in some ways worse than the ancient ATI that I used to have. I'm seeing frame rates as low as 60-70 FPS, which is just ridicules. Any idea as to what might be wrong here?

It could be any number of things, there's no way of telling until you post your system specs in full. Also, game FPS is not a valid benchmark tool, I suggest you get some serious testing utilities if you want to really evaluate performance.
